"Docker+Wasm" is just a shorthand for the Technical Preview build, which allows you to build both traditional container apps, as well as Wasm apps. Behind the scenes, we try to let Wasm apps be developed largely without interference from any container technology — just giving you a good local environment you can use to code against. That said, if you want, we do offer the ability to run Wasm apps within a Docker Compose application. We do also offer the possibility to package Wasm apps within an OCI image, with an embedded Wasm runtime (WasmEdge) so you can a) easily share these via an image registry like Docker Hub, AWS ECR, etc. and b) easily run this anywhere you’d run a container. That said it’s not mandatory, and if you want the benefits of (a) without the benefits of (b) you can easily unpack the image to just get the Wasm payload and run that however you want. We dove into the details of the approach at Kubecon today, and the video should be coming out shortly.
